Pass-through of CO2 emission costs to hourly electricity prices in Germany
Hintermann, Beat - 2014
I estimate the level of emissions cost pass-through to hourly wholesale electricity prices in Germany, based on spot … generation, and intersecting it with residual demand for fossil-based electricity for every hour. Determining the marginal … electricity prices by at least 84 %, with a central range of 98 %-104 % for different load periods. My results suggest that there …

Strompreise: künftig nur noch geringe Erhöhung durch erneuerbare Energien
Traber, Thure; Kemfert, Claudia; Diekmann, Jochen - In: DIW Wochenbericht 78 (2011) 6, pp. 2-9
Die Verbraucherpreise für Strom sind in den letzten Jahren deutlich gestiegen. Dies ist zum Teil darauf zurückführen, dass die Umlage gemäß dem Erneuerbare-Energien- Gesetz (EEG) stark angestiegen ist. Derzeit macht die EEG-Umlage einschließlich anteiliger Mehrwertsteuer etwa ein Sechstel...

Effects of regional meteorological and air conditions on community-acquired pneumonia - examining the interaction of individual, meteorological, and air characteristics
Brenner, Thomas; Link, Ann-Christine; Reudenbach, Christoph - CAPNETZ study group - 2022
Climate change will further increase not only the frequency but also the intensity of extreme weather events. As a result, weather conditions favouring pneumonia occurrence - suddenly warmer weather during cold seasons - can increase due to higher meteorological variability which is also linked...

Designing carbon taxation schemes for automobiles : a simulation exercise for Germany
Adamou, Adamos; Clerides, Sofronis; Zachariadis, Theodoros - 2011
Vehicle taxation based on CO2 emissions is increasingly being adopted worldwide in order to shift consumer purchases to low-carbon cars, yet little is known about the effectiveness and overall economic impact of these schemes. We focus on feebate schemes, which impose a fee on high-carbon...
